I did not react well to my trial of Emsam, although others have. People do report that this drug produces both an energizing effect and an anxiolytic effect, although I question the degree to which it produces a true antidepressant effect in more severe cases of depression.
Nardil is a more proven drug for both depression and GAD. Since I was introduced to Nardil early in my treatment history, I am accustomed to the dietary precautions and do not find them very restrictive. I would thus choose Nardil before trying Emsam.
Good luck, whichever you choose.
